Marijuana brownies are old news compared to the new things are being invented with marijuana. You now have things like marijuana cheesecakes, ice cream, teas, and even hummus. Well now you can add soda to the list.
The New Jersey official behind proposed medical marijuana regulations says she is not trying making the rules ‘hostile’ and restricting access to patients. Well she is just doing the opposite of what she says considering. Patients have to have seen a doctor for at least a year who will write that all other medication has not worked in order to get their card to obtain the marijuana. Also growers and dispensaries will have to have strict access and background checks, plus they may deny you for whatever reason.
California’s vote for proposition 19 is coming up in November, which would legalize possession and sale of small amounts of marijuana. Free enterprise advocates say the Mexican drug cartels would barely notice if the marijuana was legal. The Rand Corp has studied the issue closely and said that Prop 19 would erase no more than 2% to 4% of the revenues that the big Mexican Cartels generate. They say it’s because they would still have the rest of the country to sell their convenient brown brick of weed.
Three Marin County supervisors will vote Yes on proposition 19 on November 2nd in California. The rest of the county board ducked an official position on the proposal and says it will remain neutral. Supervisors Steve Kinsey, Hal Brown, and Judy Arnold said they will support the marijuana plant allowing adults to possess an ounce of marijuana while imposing penalties on those who provide it to anyone under 21.
Kinsey simple put it, “Prohibition does no work.” He went on to ask the questions, “Why are a third of Americans put in the position of being illegal? Why is marijuana our largest cash crop?”

If you can’t understand the chart or get confused you can look at it like this, if you see someone under age of fifty, flip a coin. Tails they’ve smoked marijuana, Heads they haven’t.
Marijuana has great medical properties when it comes to treating several chronic ailments such as arthritis, cancer, chronic pain, migraine headaches, seizures, severe nausea and most importantly AIDS.
Till date 14 states in United States have passed various laws that legalize the use of marijuana for medical purpose. These are Alaska, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Maine, Maryland, Michigan, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont and Washington. Each state has its own set of legislations and requires registration of the patients intending to use marijuana for medical use.
Have you heard about Hemp Evolution? Well it’s an event that would be hard to find any city leaders at unless you attended this Sunday. In Oakland, the city leaders came out to support publically the industrialization of medical marijuana.
If the price were to drop for marijuana due to the legalization of the drug, would the future jobs of marijuana workers be hazy? According to the Rand Corporation they estimate that the price could drop more than 80 percent, bringing a joint to as low as $1.50 if the legalization occurs. Of course this stirs up a debate over whether new legal marijuana business that will emerge will be sufficient to create and maintain well-paying jobs in the market place.
Prohibition, has anyone liked it? No one liked it when alcohol was made illegal, unless you were a gangster in the 1920’s as we can see on Boardwalk Empire, and even then it was sketchy. NY State has been spending huge amount of money to fight the war on pot. They are spending roughly $10-15 billion a year to keep this drug off the street. That is ludicrous when the revenue from taxing marijuana could produce $1.08 billion.
